In Wisconsin, where we hunt, fish and want to trust the water coming from our tap and where our economies rely upon water resources for livestock, crops and outdoor recreation, PFAS are a threat to our way of life and our economy. That's why I directed $10 million into a new statewide program to help get contaminants like PFAS out of our water supplies. I'm proud to report this program has helped replace or abandoned nearly 500 contaminated water wells across Wisconsin. (26:40–26:53)
